Mr. Speaker, in 2010 a vote will be held in the UN concerning a seat for the Security Council. It is important for us.

Each time I meet with my counterparts, I always speak on behalf of Canadians. I am worried also about what we can do and what Canada's role will be in the future for the UN. The UN appreciates what we are doing. We are going to be an active participant in the UN in the near future.
